Mike Preston grades the Ravens' 14-6 win over the Cleveland Browns

Quarterback: B

Karl Merton Ferron, Baltimore Sun

Joe Flacco didn't seem to be distracted despite the birth of his second son. As usual, Flacco had a couple of passes that sailed on him, but he also had several passes dropped, including two for possible touchdowns. He is still holding onto the ball too long, and that waggle pass looks like it is in slow motion. Overall, though, a strong game for Flacco, much better than the season opener against Denver. Grade: B

Still waiting to see that consistent burst or explosiveness from running back Ray Rice, pictured. Even before the hip injury, it seemed like his legs were too heavy and weighing him down. Backup running back Bernard Pierce came in and ran hard. The runs seemed to fire up the offense. Pierce might get more of the workload Sunday against the Houston Texans. Grade: C
